Heavy Metal Sunday has a simple equation for you.

Cristina Scabbia x Apocolyptica (+ intro by GWAR's Oderus Urungus) = WINNING!

Enjoy Apocalyptica featuring Cristina Scabbia - SOS (Anything But Love) Live at Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards 2008

And a bonus video link. As you've all heard by now, we've lost Clarence Clemons, the long-tine saxophonist for Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band.
